This patch is forwarded from Jay Estabrook at HP.  I've compiled the
patch on ia32 and ia64 machines and it's good.  I also recreated
the patch so it would apply to mm5 without fuzzy offsets.
Here's Jay's summary of the patch:

Here's a very small set of patches against 2.6.0-test4 that help the
DAC960 driver compile cleaner (gets rid of warnings on Alpha) and help
it to work on some old OEM'ed DAC960 cards that were sold in our older
Alphas.

The warnings are all concerned with "conversions to different size
without cast", as pointers and longs are same size (8-bytes) but ints
are 4-bytes, on Alpha. I don't believe the change to (long) from (int)
will affect any 32-bit architectures, but those using LP64 like Alpha,
ie SPARC64 and prolly IA64, will have the warnings go away.

The change to make the oldest acceptable firmware version 2.70 instead
of 2.73 is made spcific to Alpha, since it is only those cards that
DEC OEM'ed from Mylex that would have such (as explained a bit better
in the patch itself).
